To give it the proper rights, type the following command at the shell prompt while in the script's directory: chmod a+x [script filename] If after that you get a 500 error, it means you messed up the script. If the script is a perl script, modifying it with an ascii editor is no problem. I'm not familiar with other scripts, however. I hope this helps.
